September 2023 Spotlight: Hope Animal Rescue

September 2023 Spotlight

Hope Animal Rescue

Hope Animal Rescue is an all-volunteer organization founded in 2013 by mother-daughter duo, Cathy and Ashley Threadingham. This all-breed dog rescue is committed to improving the lives of stray and abandoned pets by promoting the compassionate and humane treatment of all animals, regardless of breed, age, or species.

Working alongside shelter partners, Hope Animal Rescue’s mission is to help the dogs who need it most including dogs with medical and behavioral needs, senior dogs, and breeds that are often discriminated against. In addition, Hope Animal Rescue helps community members care for their dogs and keep them in their homes.

In June 2023, Hope Animal Rescue welcomed 49 dogs into their rescue. Many of these intakes arrived with challenges.

1 emergency medical case
3 puppies born with cleft palates (one of those pups didn't make it)
24 bully breed dogs
1 pregnant mama
2 heartworm positive dogs

Serving the “Triangle Area” of North Carolina (Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill), Hope Animal Rescue relies on foster families to house adoptable dogs and to teach the dogs in their care basic house manners, to help with house-training, and to transport adoptable dogs to events or vet visits. Hope Animal Rescue pays for all vetting and preventatives, and also provides crates, toys, and food when needed.

Hope Animal Rescue offers rehoming tips and a Pet Assistance Program to provide affordable spay and neuter services and/or referrals to help with veterinary assistance, pet food and supplies, or other resources. Their vision is to create a community where every dog has a home, and every person who wishes to provide a loving home may do so regardless of age, race, gender, or socioeconomic status.

Hope Animal Rescue relies on a dedicated volunteer force to implement their mission, and it is no secret that rescue work is expensive. Your donations will help Hope Animal Rescue provide resources to give compassionate care to hundreds of animals who enter their rescue each year.
